Summarize the lytic cycle. (1 point)

Question

A virus injects its genetic material into the host cell, copies itself, and then forms new viruses that burst out of the host cell.
A virus copies its genetic material and then splits its cell membranes in half to form identical viruses.
The viral DNA incorporates itself with the host cell's and replicates whenever the host cell replicates itself.
A virus lays eggs on the host cell's protein coat, which then hatch and move on to infect other cells.

Answer 1

The lytic cycle involves a virus injecting its genetic material into a host cell, taking over the cellular machinery to replicate itself, forming new virus particles, and then causing the host cell to burst, which releases the newly formed viruses to infect other cells.
